you can tell a lot about a person by who they high dial.

i was surprised by my choice.

Why being shy is awful.

1. You have trouble looking people in the eye when they talk to you, and when you make an effort to maintain eye contact, you worry that they think you’re staring.
2. Your words don’t sound the same outside of your head as they did inside, and the more conscious you are that you’re stumbling, the more you stumble until you can’t remember what it was you were saying.
3. You have a desperate fear of awkward silences.
4. You assume everyone is looking at you.
5. You anxiously pray that your fly isn’t down every time someone walks by.
6. You suddenly have to concentrate on walking evenly whenever you notice someone staring at you.
6. You sometimes can’t listen to what people are saying in conversation because you are so anxious to get out of that conversation.
7. You get so excited about meeting people and wanting to know their life stories, but you’re too afraid to ask anything.
8. You never find out as much as you would like to know about people.

It never seems to make sense. How sometimes life can take you further and further away from who you are.
